IT3 STRATEGIC DIRECTION GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
•Supporting Georgia’s economic growth and competitiveness•Improve access to jobs which encourages growth in private sector employment and work force•Reduction in congestion costs•Improve efficiency and reliability of commutes in major metropolitan markets•Efficiency and reliability of freight, cargo, and goods movement•Provide border to border interregional connectivity•Support local connectivity to statewide transportation network
•Ensure safety and security•Reduction in crashes resulting in injury and loss of life
•Maximize the value of Georgia’s transportation assets•Optimize Capitol asset management
•Minimize the impact of transportation on the environment•Reduce emissions, improve air quality statewide, and limit our footprint
At current transportation investment levels ($12-19B over 20 years), Georgia’s outlook is grim

Category 2030 outlook1
Metro Atlanta people mobility
Medium-sized city and rural area people mobility
▪ Medium-sized cities at best experience “Atlanta-like” or “Charlotte-like” levels of congestion. At worst, expected population and job growth choked off before that occurs
▪ Safety improves, but rural job center accessibility remains unchanged (e.g., minimal GRIP investments)
Freight transport
▪ Per capita congestion costs nearly double today’s levels
▪ Employment center talent pools 33% smaller than today
▪ Core transit system operating at 70% of current levels
▪ Xpress bus service and other transit systems cut or eliminated
▪ Economic upside (GDP and jobs) from port expansion at risk, despite investments in last-mile connectivity
▪ Other growth opportunities may head to competitors (e.g., VA, NY/NJ) as priority freight corridors see 60% peak traffic increase without corresponding capacity investments
Georgia only uses two revenue sources to fund state transportation

▪ With existing resources, at most half of the “burning platform” programs can be completed
▪ There are clear benefits to securing additional resources
– Roughly $375-480 billion* in economic growth and 325,000-425,000 jobs for the whole state if user fees (e.g., tolling) are combined with a resource equivalent to a penny sales tax. This level of investment improves quality of life, captures the upside in freight and logistics, and improves access to talent pools across the state. It also brings Georgia in line with what other states are investing in new capacity (~0.5% of state GDP) and the outcomes they expect to achieve
– As a secondary option, “direct user fees alone” can deliver substantial mobility benefits in Metro Atlanta (e.g., increase in fast, reliable trips). While this is important (prevents a slowdown in a large growth engine), a “toll only” approach will leave Georgia well short of its objectives on freight and people mobility across the state
– Balancing capacity investments with policy levers (e.g., coordinated development) will help deliver greater value from the state’s limited resources
▪ Two critical elements are now going to be in place to implement the transportation plan:
– Enhanced GDOT governance with outcomes-based, data-driven planning
– Business case for transportation investment
Next Steps……(Full SSTP Update starting after session, STIP development)

Can work only if Director of Planning, Commissioner, Board and Governor work together to support and improve Georgia’s transportation network!!!!!
